Data Viz in Python – Stacked Percentage Bar Plot In MatPlotLib

Stacked Percentage Bar Plot In MatPlotLib

Preliminaries

%matplotlib inline
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

Create dataframe


raw_data = {'first_name': ['Jason', 'Molly', 'Tina', 'Jake', 'Amy'],
        'pre_score': [4, 24, 31, 2, 3],
        'mid_score': [25, 94, 57, 62, 70],
        'post_score': [5, 43, 23, 23, 51]}

df = pd.DataFrame(raw_data, columns = ['first_name', 'pre_score', 'mid_score', 'post_score'])
df
first_name pre_score mid_score post_score
0 Jason 4 25 5
1 Molly 24 94 43
2 Tina 31 57 23
3 Jake 2 62 23
4 Amy 3 70 51

Make plot


/* Create a figure with a single subplot */
f, ax = plt.subplots(1, figsize=(10,5))

/* Set bar width at 1 */
bar_width = 1

/* positions of the left bar-boundaries */
bar_l = [i for i in range(len(df['pre_score']))] 

/* positions of the x-axis ticks (center of the bars as bar labels) */
tick_pos = [i+(bar_width/2) for i in bar_l] 

/* Create the total score for each participant */
totals = [i+j+k for i,j,k in zip(df['pre_score'], df['mid_score'], df['post_score'])]

/* Create the percentage of the total score the pre_score value for each participant was */
pre_rel = [i / j * 100 for  i,j in zip(df['pre_score'], totals)]

/* Create the percentage of the total score the mid_score value for each participant was */
mid_rel = [i / j * 100 for  i,j in zip(df['mid_score'], totals)]

/* Create the percentage of the total score the post_score value for each participant was */
post_rel = [i / j * 100 for  i,j in zip(df['post_score'], totals)]

/* Create a bar chart in position bar_1 */
ax.bar(bar_l, 
       pre_rel, 
       label='Pre Score', 
       alpha=0.9, 
       color='019600',
       width=bar_width,
       edgecolor='white'
       )

/* Create a bar chart in position bar_1 */
ax.bar(bar_l, 
       mid_rel, 
       bottom=pre_rel, 
       label='Mid Score', 
       alpha=0.9, 
       color='3C5F5A', 
       width=bar_width,
       edgecolor='white'
       )

/* Create a bar chart in position bar_1 */
ax.bar(bar_l, 
       post_rel, 
       bottom=[i+j for i,j in zip(pre_rel, mid_rel)], 
       label='Post Score',
       alpha=0.9, 
       color='219AD8', 
       width=bar_width,
       edgecolor='white'
       )

/* Set the ticks to be first names */
plt.xticks(tick_pos, df['first_name'])
ax.set_ylabel("Percentage")
ax.set_xlabel("")

/* Let the borders of the graphic */
plt.xlim([min(tick_pos)-bar_width, max(tick_pos)+bar_width])
plt.ylim(-10, 110)

/* rotate axis labels */
plt.setp(plt.gca().get_xticklabels(), rotation=45, horizontalalignment='right')

/* shot plot */
plt.show()

Python Example for Beginners

Two Machine Learning Fields

There are two sides to machine learning:

  • Practical Machine Learning:This is about querying databases, cleaning data, writing scripts to transform data and gluing algorithm and libraries together and writing custom code to squeeze reliable answers from data to satisfy difficult and ill defined questions. It’s the mess of reality.
  • Theoretical Machine Learning: This is about math and abstraction and idealized scenarios and limits and beauty and informing what is possible. It is a whole lot neater and cleaner and removed from the mess of reality.
